^.REPSR¥,V 


To   the  Trnstees  of    the  Uuiversity  of  Georgia: 

I  have  the  honor  to  make  you  my  Thirteenth  Auuual  Report. 
The  atteudauce  of  students  the  j)ast  year  has  been,  in  the  College 
proper,  143.  There  was  a  school  for  small  pupils  taught  in  the  base- 
ment of  the  building,  numbering  81,  making  a  total  of  224.  This 
school,  which  is  under  the  excellent  management  of  Miss  Lizzie  Chap- 
n<an,  one  of  our  graduates,  is  not  supported  out  of  any  fund  of  the 
College,  but  by  the  patrons.  Still,  it  is  under  the  supervision  of  our 
trustees.  The  health  of  the  students  has  been  excellent.  No  deaths 
have  occurred  among  the  students  while  in  attendance.  The  discipline 
of  the  College  under  the  Faculty  has  been  such  as  to  meet  the  approval 
of  our  Board.  The  Military  Department  has  for  the  past  year  been 
under  the  personal  direction  of  Lieutenant  W.  C.  Rafferty,  1st  Ar- 
tillery, U.  S.  A.  For  more  than  a  year  previous  we  had  been  deprived 
of  the  service  of  an  army  officer,  in  consequence  of  the  limited  num- 
ber of  officers  provided  by  law  for  agricultural  colleges.  It  was  per- 
haps owing  to  the  appeals  of  our  College  that  Congress  was  induced 
last  summer  on  the  eve  of  adjournment,  to  increase  the  number  of 
officers,  which  enabled  the  Secretary  of  War  to  place  an  officer  in 
charge  of  the  Military  Department  of  this  College.  In  Lieutenant 
Raiferly  we  have  a  most  efficient  officer  and  teacher,  who,  in  addition 
to  his  other  duties,  has  added  a  school  of  Instruction  in  Music,  in 
which  all  students  are  allowed  to  participate. 

THE  FEMALE  DEPARTMENT. 

Under  the  able  direction  of  Miss  Mary  R.  Lewis,  this  Department 
is  rn-owing  in  usefulness.  As  our  facilities  for  girls  and  young  ladies 
increase,  we  shall  expect  a  larger  attendance.  Our  grounds  are  yet  to 
be  inclosed,  and  when  we  have  made  certain  contemplated  improve- 
ments, looking  to  the  privacy  and  comfort  of  the  pupils  in  this  De- 
partment, we  feel  confident  that  the  advantages  offered  to  young  ladies 
will  bring  a  large  atiendance. 

OUR  riNANCES.

This  indebtedness  was  absolutelj'  necessary.  The  college  exe  - 
ci.ses  could  not  b^  comfortably  carried  oi  without  seats  an  I  d^isks. 
Tlje  outl.iy  of  $203,01  for  the  Departmint  of  Science,  wa*  tdiliga- 
tory,  or  the  exercises  of  some  of  the  classes  would  have  suspended.  It 
may  be  that  the  General  AssemVdy  will  ajipropriate  a  sum  of  money  to 
pay  off  the  indebtedness  for  furniture  and  apparatus,  as  well  as  finish 
the  building,  which  not  being  complete,  requires  frequent  outlays  to 
preserve  what  has  already  been  accomplished. 

Unlpfi«  the  Uuiversity  can  give  us  an  increased  amount  for  onr 
tiMiirhers.  not  less  than  ^'tUO  00.  we  will  be  obliged  to  reduce  onr  force. 
The  sal  iiy  now  paid  to  Miss  Lewis,  in  the  Female  Department,  is  very 
niH-igre.  To  reduce  the  number  of  {)rofessors  or  teachers,  is  to  cripple 
th<'  institution,  and  injure  it  for  all  time.  The  teachers  are  now  worked 
to  their  utmost.  liut,  as  our  annual  indebtedness  is  increasing  at  the 
rate  of  about  •'^400  00,  we  will  be  obliged  to  contract  our  force  of 
lentdurs,  b(;  the  consequences  what  they  maj',  unless  your  Board  can 
restore  to  us  at  h'ust  a  portion  of  the  fund  of  which  we  were  deprived 
a  few  years  ago. 

CHANGE  IN  THE  CURRICULUM. 
At  a  recent  mcttihi^  of  o'^r  IJoanl,  it  was  <leciiled  that  yonr  Board 
Hhould  lie  re(pieHted  to  so    change  the  curriculum  at  this  college  as   to 
make  th''  study    of  (Jreek  o])tional.     There  were  many  n  as  )ns  for  this 


request,  but  the  most  iinportaut  seeme  1  to  be  that  unless  we  had  more 
lirofessors  we  would  be  compelled  to  teach  Greek  at  the  expense  of  the 
English  buanches;  and  again,  we  were  made  aware  of  the  fact  that 
mauj^  young  men,  as  well  as  young  ladies,  of  hitherto  limited  school 
advantages,  were  deterred  from  entering  the  college  because  they 
would  be  compelled  to  master  the  Greek  language  before  they  could 
take  the  decree  of  A.  B.  It  might  be  that  some  modern  Language,  Ger- 
mon  or  French,  could  be  substituted.  At  any  rate  we  hope  that  yoti 
will  autliorizc  us  to  make  such  changes,  as  to  the  Greek  language,  as  will 
meet  the  necessities  and  circumstances,  of  this  college.  We  are  satis- 
fied, as  it  is,  that  a  satisfactory  knowledge  of  the  English  language,  as 
well  as  the  sciences,  is  s-icrificod  in  the  attempt  to  master  a  language, 
which  if  fully  attained,  would  not  meet  the  demands  which  will  be 
made  upon  our  young  men  in  the  positions  they  are  likely  to  be 
called  on  to  occupy. 

THE  BEOWN  SCHOLARSHIP  FUND. 

The  following  named  young  men  are  at  present  receiving  benefits 
from  this  fund  to  wU: 

N.  L.  Davis.  Oconee  Co.  S.  C $150- 

W.  B.  Jaynes.  Oconee  Co.  S.  C .fl50- 

W.   H.  Mincy,  Lumpkin  Co.  Ga .flOO. 

J.  E.  McGee,  Union  Co.  Ga .flOO- 

J.  C.  McDugald  Lumpkin  Co.  Ga ^lOO- 

Geo.  W.  Sain,  Lumpkin  Co.  Ga flOO. 

J.  P.  Stribliug,  Oconee  Co.  S.  C flOO. 

W.  T.  Swauson,  Towns  Co.  Ga !f!lCO. 

W.  H.  Sheltou,  Lumpkin  Co.  Ga $100 

$1,000. 

These  young  men  have  taken  a  high  position  in  their  classes.    The 

most  of  them    will,  during  the  vacation    mouths,    teach    in  the   public 

schools  of  the  State,  and  will  thus  be  able  to  contribute  to  their  support. 

TEACHERS. 

We  have  licensed  45  teachers  the  present  year.  Many  of  these 
have  obtained  good  schools,  and  are  engaged  in  teaching.  The  good 
done  by  the  hundreds  of  teachers  already  sent  forth,  is  almost  incalcu- 
lable. It  is  one  of  the  most  important  features  of  the  college.  In  this 
way  the  institution  is  making  a  constant  return  to  the  State,  for  all  the 
outlays  made  upon  it. 

It  is  to  be  hoped  that  the  General  Assembly,  at  its  present  session, 
will  be  urged  by  your  Board  to  make  the  appropriation  recommended 
by  the  State  Board  of  Visitors  who  attended  our  late  commencement, 
to  wit:  the  sum  of  f  5,000.  This  sum  will  complete  the  building  and 
pay  for  the  needed  apparatus  and  furniture.

Report  adopted  July  9th,  1885.  President  of  Board.

Candidates  for  admission  into  the  Institution  must  see  the 
President  nnd  make  application  within  twenty-four  hours  after 
they  arrive,  or  i^hey  may    be   denied  the  privilege  of  entering. 

The  applicant  must  be  prepared  to  furnish  testimonials  of 
good  moral  character  and  if  he  has  been  a  member  of  an  in- 
corporated institution  of  learning  he  must  produce  a  certifi- 
cate of  honorable  withdrawal.  He  must  promise  in  writing 
that  he  will  faithfully  abide  by  the  rules  and  regulations  of 
the  College,  a  copy  of  which  will  be  furnished  him,  and  that 
whenever  he  is  called  upon  by  a  member  of  the  faculty  with 
questions  concerning  his  deportment,  he  will  answer  truth- 
fully to  the  best  of  his  ability;  that  he  will  be  honest  with 
himself  and  the  teachers  at  all  recitations  and  examinations, 
and  that  he  will  not  enter  into  any  combination  whatsoever 
against  fellow-students,  or  any  of  the  workings  of  the  Insti- 
tution; and  that  he  will  deport  himself  in  a  gentlemanly  man- 
ner at  all  times. 

JVo  tuition  is  exacted.  An  admission  fee  of  five  dollars  is 
required  of  all.  This  fee  goes  entirely  to  defray  the  expenses 
of  wood,  repairs  on  the  building,  and  the  janitor's  salary,  as 
there  is  no  fund  to  meet  these  needs.

•>•  miLIT/lJ^Y  •:•  DEPj^pqERT.  •<• 


This  Department  is  under  the  immediate  command  of  Major 
"SV.  C.  R  iffertj.  The  cadets  are  organized  into  a  battalion  of 
two  companies,  which  latter  are  officered  with  cadets  selected 
by  the  Faculty.  They  are  chosen  for  their  merit,  considering- 
deportment,  disciplinary  ability,  aptness  in  the  drills,  class 
and  class  stand.  The  military  orgauiziitiou  secures  the  en- 
forcement of  discipline  with  greater  ease  and  le^s  friction 
than  any  other,  as  the  responsibility  or  the  cadets  themselves 
for  the  observance  of  the  regulations  inspires  a  greater  trust- 
worthiness and  firmer  moral  tone  th:iu  c.i;i  ba  obtiiuad  by  any 
possible  system  of  outsivle  espionage. 

THEOHZTIC.iL   INSTRUCTION. 

Theoretical  instruction  consists  of  recitations  in  Upto!i's 
Infantry  and  Artillery  Tactics,  ac^'oinpanied  by  its  application 
on  the  drill  yround,  and  Wlieeler's  Art  and  Science  of  War. 
Ill  addition,  lectures  are  delivered  by  tlie  Commandant  upon 
the  various  living  military  tojiics,  in  order  that  the  students 
may  liave  a  general  k.iowledge  or  those  other  brandies  of 
military  science  besides  the  drills.  It  is  desired  rather  to  give 
the  student  a  general  knowleduje  of  those  fixed  military  princi- 
ples v.'hich  underlie  the  wh  )le  art  and  science  of  war,  than  to 
Ijurden  his  time  with  the  acquisition  of  tecimical  milit:iry  in- 
instruction,  desirable  only  for  the  professional  suldier. 
INFANTRY  DaiLL. 

Tiie  members  of  the  1)  ittalion  are  drilled  in  tiie  schools  in 
ordei-:  Scliool  of  tlie  Sohber,  of  the  Company  including 
Jiattalioii  Drill,  and  of  the  J3  ittalion. 

Wf  find  that  the  drill  gives  to  the  student  exercise  which 
is  absolutely  essential  to  health  of  body  and  mind,  and  which 
many  of  them  would  not  take  unless  required  to  do  so.  Witli 
the  exception  of  Sunday  the  cadets  are  th'illed  daily  when  the 
weather  permits.  The  cadets  march  to  church  in  good 
weather. 

ARTILLERY  DRILL. 

The  officers,  non-commissioned  officer.-}  and  picked  privates 


are  drilled  m  the  "Manual  of  the  Piece."     Exercise  with  blank 
cartridges  is  frequently  had  in  this  drill. 

GYMNASTICS. 

In  addition  to  the  drill,  gymnastic  exercises,  performed  only 
under  the  direct  example  and  observation  of  the  Commandant 
and  cadet  officers,  have  been  found  extremely  useful  in  im- 
proving and  developing  cadets  of  unusual  lack  of  symmetry, 
or  great  muscular  tenuity.  The  striking  improvement  in  the 
physique,  the  health,  and  the  manly  bearing  of  cadets  after  a 
single  term's  attendance,  speaks  volumes  for  the  military 
feature  of  the  College. 

PHYSICAL    DISABILITY. 

Military  drill  and  discipline  are  obligatory  on  all  male  stu- 
dents above  15  years  of  ape.  Should  a  student  be  unable  to 
perform  the  duties  of  this  department,  he  will  be  given  a 
modified  instruction  suited  to  his  strength,  but  no  cadet  will 
be  entirely  excused  from  the  regular  routine  of  duties  except 
by  a  vote  of  the  Faculty  at  a  regular  meeting  of  the  same,  at 
which  meeting  the  student  shall  jDresent  a  certificate  of  a  pre- 
scribed form,  from  a  physician  of  good  standing,  testifying 
that  he  is  unable  to  eagage  in  the  regular  exercise,  or  such 
modified  exercise,  as  may  be  required  of  him. 

AEMS. 
We  have  at  present  150  Cadet  Springfield  rifles  (breech 
loaders)  and  accoutrements,  and  two  three-inch  wrought  iron 
guns  and  carriages  furnished  by  the  general  government.  A 
liberal  supply  of  ammunition  is  also  furnished  yearly.  Target 
practice  is  fiequently  indulged  in  under  the  supervision  of  the 
Commandant. 

UNIFORM. 

Uniforms  are  worn  at  all  military  drills  and  formvations.  The 
stu-dents  in  the  Military  Department  are  required  to  provide 
themselves  with  the  uniform  of  the  school,  consisting  of  coat, 
pants  and  cap,  within  one  month  from  the  time  they  enter 
the  College.  Arrangements  have  been  made  by  which  the  uni- 
form, of  splendid  material,  style,  and  finish,  can  be  obtained 
promptly,at  minimum  v/holesale  jDrices — the  cost  of  coat,  pants 
and  cap  being  $15:50;  helmet,  $2.60;  white  belt,  55c.  It  is 
not  required  that  cadets  shall  wear  the  uniform  except  at  mili- 
tary drill  and  formations,  but  at  the  price  stated,  the  uniform 
is  about  the  most  economical  clothing  obtainable,  as  the  cadets 
Ijretty  generally  take  extra  pains  to  keep  their  uniforms  neat 
and  clean.

Tlie  College  building,  which  has  been  in  course  of  construc- 
tion for  several  years  past,  is  now  about  completed.  It  is  a 
lai'ge,  imposing  brick  building,  beautifully  situated  on  an  emi- 
nence in  a  conspicuous  part  of  the  town;  is  handsonjely  de- 
signed and  admirably  adapted  to  the  purpose  for  which  it  was 
intended.  It  contains  a  Chapel  and  fifteen  recitation  rooms.

EriPENSES. 
Board,  including  fuel,  iiojits.  etc.,  can  be  had  in  good  fami- 
lies at  $10,  Sl'-i,  and  .^15.  Many  of  the  very  best  young  men

done,  and  in  this  way  do  vc y  nicely  at  fiom  $(}  to  S8  per  month. 
Some  have  reduced  their  expenses  as  low  us  $3  cash  by  bring- 
ing provisions  from  home.  The  annual  c;)st  of  books  is  from 
J^IO  to  $15,  and  this  is  fr  'quenUy  redu':ed  by  pniclnising 
second-hand  books.  No  t^i^ion  is  required,  only  a  matiicu'.-i- 
tion  fee  of  $5  per  term.  A  fee  of  SI  is  req  lired  of  those  who 
enter  th*^  Collegiate  DepartnnMit  in  Science,  as  an  Equipment 
fund  for  that  Department. 

APPARATUS. 
A  valuable  Philosoi)lhcal  and  Chemical  Apparatus  has  been 
purchased,  and  is  in  use  in  the  Department  of  Natural  Science. 
A  beautiful  combination  transit  w  th  solar  attachment,  is  used 
in  the  Department  of  Mathematics. 

THE  BROWN  FUND. 
From  the  Charles  McDonald  Brown  Scholarsbio  Fund  the 
Institution  gets  Sj>l,OnO  aniuially.  This  is  to  aid  worthy  young 
men  who  are  unable  to  jjtiy  tiu'ir  v.ay  through  college.  The 
applitant  must  be  at  least  IS,  in  good  health,  and  lesidein  one 
of  the  following  counties:  llabiin,  Towns,  Union,  Fannin,  Daw- 
son, Muiray,  White,  Lunq-kin,  Gilmer,  Pickens,  Cherc^kee  and 
P^orsyth,  in  Georgia,  and  ()con(;e  and  Pickens.  South  Carolina. 
On  entering  school  he  givers  his  promise  on  honor  in  writing 
tliat  he  will  ])ay  back  th(^  money  he  receives  as  soon  after  he 
completes  his  course  as  he  is  able.  Applications  mast  bo  made 
in  wiiting  to  the  President  of  the  Board  of  Trustees. 

T:E  PRIMARY  DEPARTMENT. 
Tiie  C'olh  ge  has  |ja<l  ^.in(•e  its  organization  a  noil  attended 
Primary  Dejjartment  for  tlK)S(?  pupils  nvvv  seven  years  of  age, 
whose  attainments  dr)  not  a(bnit  them  to  the  preparatoiy  de- 
))artni«ujt,  i)ut  this  J>ej>artnjent  lias  been  placed  in  tlie  hands 
of  private  teacliers  Such  pujjils  can  find  accommodation  at 
these  ])nvHte  schools.  To  enter  the  Preparatory  Depaitment 
jjupils  must  ])asH  an  exunination  showing  that  they  are  pre- 
pared on  primary  geography,  in  arithmetic  through  long  di- 
vision, can  read  coi-rectly  and  wiite  legibly. 


THE  FEMALE  DEPARTMENT. 
A  {"^avt  of  the  building-  is  set  apart  exclusively  for  the  occu- 
pancy of  the  young  larlies,  and  no  intrusion  on  the  part  of  the 
yonn'^'  men  i<  perinittecL  This  Department  is  under  the  spe- 
cial care  of  Miss  Mary  R.  Lewis,  who  presides  over  the  young 
ladies'  study  room  and  that  part  of  the  building  set  apart  for 
them.  All  the  young  ladies  are  in  her  presence,  except  when 
in  the  recitation  rooms  of  some  of  the  other  professors.  In 
the  afternoon  when  the  cadets  are  engaged  in  drill,  the  young* 
ladies,  under  charge  of  Miss  Lewis,  go  through  calesthenic 
exercises.  For  out-door  exercise  the  young  Indies  hav«  organ- 
ized an  archery  club.  The  exercise  afforded  by  the  calesthenics 
ar.d  the  bow  and  arrow  does  as  much  for  the  young  ladies  as 
the  military  drill  and  gymnastics  for  the  3'oung  men. 

A   DISTINCTIVE,   VALUABLE.  UNEQUALED  FEATURE. 

This  Institution  has  a  place  for  a  pupil  of  any  grade  of 
scholarship  from  the  first  class  in  the  Primary  Department, 
thiough  the  Bachelor  of  Arts  course.  Hence  the  value  to 
fajnilies.  Parents  with  sons  and  diughters  from  5  to  25  years 
of  uge  come  and  take  up  their  residence  here  for  these  advan- 
tages, and  enjoy  the  blessings  of  a  family  with  all  at  home 
wliile  their  children  are  being  educated— freedom  from  anxiety 
on  account  oi'  the  absent  ones  at  a  distant  boarding  school — 
the  intluence  of  home  and  parents,  valuable  to  sons,  essential 
to  daughters — aur]  an  influence  of  an  unconscious  education 
of  the  younger  pupils,  which  is  derived  from  their  observation 
of  the  inanners,  the  proper  language,  the  propriety  of  dress, 
which  they  daily  witness  in  tlie_  older  and  better  cultivated 
pupils,  and  the  attention,  assistance  and  protection  which  older 
brothers  and  sisters  give  the  younger  when  in  tlie  sime  school. 

LIBRARY. 

The  Institution  has  only  a  limited  number  of  volumes  now, 
a  large  number  having  been  destroyed  by  the  fire  of  1878. 
Generous  contributions  have  found  tiieir  way  to  the  College 
during  the  past  year,  and  we  trust  will  be  largely  augmented 
in  time.  To  make  up  this  deficiency  the  large  and  valuable 
library  of  President  Lewis,  equaled  by  few,  in  any,  private 
libraries  in  the  State,  has  been  generously  thrown  open  to  the 
students,  for  which  the  Trustees  feel  profoundly  grateful.  We 
shall  be  pleased  to  receive  contributions  of  book.s,  pamphlets, 
rare  old  papers,  and  pictures  of  prominent  authors,  statesmen, 
educators,  philanthropists,  divines,  lawyers,  physicians,  arti- 
sans, musicians,  as  well  as  those  who  distiuguisu  themselves 
in  any  other  honorable  pursuit  of  life.  These  will  be  con- 
signed a  conspicuous  place  in  the  College.

This  little  juper  afif.uds  the  students  much  valuable  experience. 
MONTHLY  REPORTS. 

At  the  end  of  every  month  the  faculty  sends  out  reports  of  all  the 
students,  giving  an  account  of  their  standing  during  that  mouth.  In 
these  reports  H)0  is  the  maximum  and  0  the  minimum.  With  each  stu- 
dent a  ..enierit  account  is  kept,  and  whenever  one  is  found  guilty  of  an 
infringiMiieiit  umoii  any  rule  or  regulation,  the  charge  is  read  out  by  the 
•  ;o!iiniandant  at  roll  call  in  the  morning,  and  the  delinciueut  is  called

ber of  demerits  are  docketed  against  him.  according  to  the  gravity  of 
the  offense.  If  u  student  receives  100  demerits  during  a  tenn  of  five 
months,  he  is  expelled,  and  published  in  the  Catalogue.
